Killer storms are occurring in many parts of the world, earthquakes and tidal waves causing widespread devastation are all too frequent. More stories are appearing about disasters. Accounts of people becoming aware of present and impending doom are increasing. There seems more impediments for what we want to do for the Lord.
There has been a surge in messages from believers about Jesus’ coming and His warnings to the world. There have been many messages from people who have seen Christ and Heaven.
These end-times occurrences were foretold in the Bible 2000 years ago. Most people, even pastors ignore these Bible prophesies as not essential to know, too obscure, unlikely, too horrible or too sensitive to talk about. As a result, most of the world is not expecting the Bible-predicted end of the present world. This to their peril.
Those who know these prophesies want to know when it all will happen. No one is allowed to know the day it will begin. But the Bible makes it clear that a far more significant event than the disasters will be the appearance of Jesus Christ to call His faithful ones home to Heaven. His faithful will be removed from the earth before the worst of the prophesized disasters overtake the world. While we don’t know the exact day of His coming, we can know the “season”, and it is now. For those who know the Bible prophesies, all the signs listed above point to a soon coming.
How do we prepare for this?
All right, if Jesus is coming soon how do we prepare for this momentous happening? Is there anything we can do? The answer was spelled out by Christ while He walked the earth. To be“saved” which means finding our salvation for a life forever with Christ in Heaven, we must repent our sins and everyone has sinned, then ask the Lord for forgiveness, and pledge our lives to Christ. This is so easy, and rewarding beyond imagination, but only a small percentage of people take this step. I can attest to some of the rewards -- Inner peace in knowing my eternal home; realizing a valid purpose for my life; knowing that an all-powerful God is with me; seeing the smiles of strangers in return for my smile, and the gratitude of those receiving the messages and the materials given to them. Many do refuse these, I just wish them well. And I know that the wonderful earthly joy in knowing God is only a shadow of life in Heaven, a life with God, continual joy, worship and love forever.
Jesus is so sad for those who haven’t accepted Him, and does all He can to spread His Holy Word and news of His coming. He has enlisted the aid of many people. All Christians are commanded to tell others about Jesus and what He did for us. Few do this. Christ worked with Choo Thomas to write the book “Heaven Is So Real” about Heaven and hell and how to be saved. CDs and DVDs have been created on this message and distributed worldwide along with the book. Lately He has dictated detailed messages and given visions to a few people and commanded them to tell the world. He has also appeared in spirit to some followers and asked them to report this to others. Jesus’ messages about His coming have become more and more urgent. Now He is saying that there is no more time and that there is nothing more to be done before He takes His faithful to Heaven.
Hell is real! People who have been taken there so they could tell about it have described the horrors. Hell was created for Satan and the fallen angels who followed the devil when he tried to be better than God. Jesus said hell was not intended for people, but He also said that for those who do not believe in Him, this is their only place. Sin is not permitted in Heaven. Christ died an agonizing death on the cross and took the world’s sins upon Himself. But unless we accept His wonderful offer to be forgiven of our sins, we will not be saved. Why suffer an eternity of agony in hell when we could spend it in Heaven with Him? This doesn’t make sense, but the world continues to ignore His pleas. They do not take Christ seriously, thinking of Him mainly as a nice symbol of peace at Christmas. That was me before I finally embraced Him. Now I know that Jesus and Heaven and hell are real!
The Cross is used today in frivolous secular imaging, and carried proudly by Christians. It will have more relevance if we imagine it as a bridge between our sinful life in this evil world and Jesus and Heaven. We can cross this mighty chasm by believing that Jesus died on the cross to take our sins upon Himself.
Is there any hope for those left behind? Yes there is still a way to spend eternity in Heaven instead of hell. It is not easy, and there will be agony and worse. Satan is in charge and will go all out to bring everyone into his orbit of misery. He will convince many that he is god by miracles. But those who fall for his deception he will laugh and torture. Without taking his mark, money will be worthless and buying anything impossible. Those refusing the devil’s 666 mark will be labeled Christians and tortured without mercy and finally beheaded. As terrible as this will be, it is better to endure than spend forever in the horrors of hell. Those who die for Christ will end up in Heaven. Those left behind should never fall for the guiles of the evil one. No one should ever accept an identity chip. These God predicted happenings are real, not a fairy tale. … Below is more information.
